Veritas being exploited



Knowing the number of you who have clients using Veritas, here ya go. 
I just got another CERT advisory on Veritas Backup Exec today, except
this one includes the following ominous sign:

Exploit code for this vulnerability is publicly available. In
   addition, we have received credible reports that this vulnerability 
is
   being actively exploited to execute arbitrary code with Local System
   privileges. We have also seen increased scanning activity on port
   10000/tcp. This increase is believed to be attempts to locate
   vulnerable systems running the VERITAS Backup Exec Remote Agent.

Here's the text of the full alert from CERT:
